Grant: Randomized Controlled Trials: Mentoring
Unity Health Toronto
$140,000.00
Determining the Efficacy of a Hospital-Based Youth Violence Secondary Intervention
FY 2010-11
Summary
The Canadian Institute of Health Research Randomized Control Trials Mentoring Award will allow Dr. Carolyn Snider, an emergency physician and young scientist, to further develop her clinical research program in intentional injury, specifically focusing on prevention of violent injury among youth. The most common reason for ED visits in Ontario among those aged 15 - 24 is physical assault. However, few clinical trials of ED-based interventions in intentional injury have occurred. Given Dr Snider's credibility in clinical Emergency Medicine, she is uniquely situated to become a leader in clinical trials in her area of research interest. This award will allow Dr. Snider to complement her existing epidemiological training by pursuing advanced education specific to leading pragmatic randomized control trials (RCTs), and thereby contribute to the growth of research in intentional injury.
